Exodus 14:14 The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”

I find such peace in this scripture. Naturally, I want to defend myself against those whom I believe have wronged me. But I am able to look retrospectively and witness that their tactics never produce success. My tenacity and desire to move my life forward and with positivity in my heart makes me free!

Thoughts are only the sparks to your physical manifestations, but they don’t carry enough energy to transform consciousness into dense, physical reality. The actual creation happens through your emotions, your energy that’s constantly in motion… 

The stronger the emotion, the faster the manifestation. The most powerful positive emotions are love, passion, joy, excitement… but careful, there are also very powerful negative emotions, like worry and fear that are responsible for our unwanted, unconscious creations. -Robert Spadinger

The Accidental Vegetarian

Standard

IMG_0964

I recently discovered that there is an actual term for my sometimes insatiable cravings for vegetables, even preferring them over meat.  During my travels, I have opted for the vegetables on many occasions and continue to prefer them when I return home.  Meat seems to become less of an anchor for my meals these days and I go days without eating any at all.

According to Ask.com, that makes me a “flexitarian.”  What, exactly, does flexitarian mean? “Flexitarian” is used to describe a diet or a person who eats a “mostly” vegetarian diet, occasionally including meat. But what exactly does this mean? Does it mean once a week or once a day? It’s really up to you, as there is no standard agreement or definition, though perhaps someday there will be.

What I will admit is that I still love great barbeque, especially at “Bennie J’s Smoke Pit” in Huntsville, TX.  If you are ever traveling on Interstate 45 between Houston and Dallas, it’s worth the detour.    Bennie J's Smoke Pit

PROVERBS 16:7

7 When a person’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.

Although it changes along with my experiences, this scripture has been my favorite for a couple of years now.  Suffice it to say that leadership comes at a price.  Sometimes we choose it willingly and sometimes it is thrust upon us whether we want it or not.  Following my own path is not so difficult, however, creating a path for others to follow and adopt… #painful!  Even if those you lead actually believe in your ability to do so, inevitably there will be folks among them who question your ability or resent it. My prayer is to accept leadership with grace and humility at all times whether at home or at work.
